With the joe con exclusive main feature being the Mission Brazil II set it got me desirous to touch on that theme but in 1/6th. Now I have made Capt. Claymore twice before and while he looked cool it didnt feel right without his giraffe camo. now some migth ask "What on this green Earth would possess you to reproduce that?!" Truthfully I must say its the uniqueness of the figure. He's only had one version (until the conset which was a massive letdown) and is one of the most distinct and underrated joes made. So after two and a half days of soaking a set of BDU's in golden yellow dye and gathering the proper parts and painting the head I was able to reproduce one of the most distinct (and a personal fave of mine as a kid) joes ever made.....Mission Brazil Team Leader Captain Claymore.

That's awesome dude! Love how acurate it is to the 1:18 figure. The only suggestion i would give is put some foliage on the helmet. Maybe with some cloth cut into small leaf shapes or using green stuff to sculpt it on.

I would've preferred the con set to match the colors of the original set as well, maybe it's because I had the original set.

Claymore was the only one i had from the set (traded a buddy for it cause he didnt like). This one I plan on keeping on account of how close to the original small joe i managed to get him.
